A Note To Parents

A Note to Parents From Our Founder Hans Hanson:

Mom and Dad-

My job as your coach is to make sure that you know the difference between winning and losing.

My goal is to provide the best chance for your child to earn a quality college education; to provide their best opportunity for college sports success; and to maximize your financial award and scholarship opportunity.

My role is to provide you with all the tools, knowledge, and guidance necessary to see you through to a successful outcome.

I am a parent of two student-athletes. Both graduated from terrific colleges. One played major college sports. Like you, I have seen my fair share of prep sports- games, practices, showcases and camps. Sure, high school and club teams provide tense moments and great excitement, but the thrill of the college game exceeds it all by leaps and bounds.

I know first hand how Sports can make a difference in the lives of our children. Sports can them develop a sense of accomplishment and an understanding that hard work pays off. Many of life’s memories are shaped by sports competition- the wins, the losses, the hard work, the big crowds. And to boot, real friendships result from sports teams, especially those in college.

About 10 years ago, I watched my own children and many others ponder the next step: will all of this come to an end in high school or can it be extended into college? I quickly understood the game changed after high school — and the stakes went up. Way up. Making the call on selecting a college is like playing high stakes poker. All the chips are on the table. You’re either all in or all out; you either win or you lose.

One path leads to success on the playing field and in the classroom. The other winds its way through disappointment and frustration.

Those high stakes are the reason I created The College Sports Track. And, my promise to you is simple. We will help you turn the odds in your favor.

Yes, there is serious competition for every roster spot, but solving the college recruiting puzzle is about more than just landing on any team. We believe a student athlete should find the right fit athletically, academically, culturally and financially. And you can- being a recruited athlete is your choice.

We also created The College Sports Track with the understanding that no two student athletes are alike; no two families the same. So, we offer a range of options to solve the high-stakes mystery of college recruiting: One-on-one  coaching; unique books and workbooks outlining all the steps to finding the right college fit; my on-call telephone conference hotline.

Guiding a student athlete to the right college is hard work. But, it’s worth it. In fact, 90 percent of successful, satisfied, student athletes graduate on time, compared to 40 percent otherwise. Our motivation is for your son or daughter to be in the 90 percentile, it’s that simple.

That is why I created The College Sports Track. Now, let us help your family get the inside track towards finding college sports success.
